RDT has had a very busy and fun-filled week this week! Our special event was our adventure to Knaresborough, which took place on Wednesday and Thursday. We had a fantastic time together, doing a variety of different activities whilst we were there, which included visiting Knaresborough Castle, having a picnic together and sitting by the River Nidd to enjoy an ice-lolly. To fit in with our ‘On the Move’ topic, we enjoyed exploring different ways to travel during our special day out. We travelled by minibus, train and using our feet (which walked over 100 steps up to the castle!) where we watched little rowing boats move across the river below. Thank you so much to our families who helped by joining us on our trip, it was so lovely to have you with us and your help was invaluable!
We will share many more photographs of our adventure soon at our upcoming Arts Celebration! For now, look at our big smiles at Knaresborough Station and Castle!
This week, we spent time making cards for someone special. We each created a neat and detailed pen portrait to go on the front of our card and then used our writing skills to add a message on the inside. We will give our card to the special person that we have chosen at the weekend.
Some of us got to visit the cute, fluffy chicks in Nursery this week. We handled them really carefully and used a gentle hold when it was our turn to meet them. When we arrived, the chicks were snuggled together and sleeping, but soon woke up when they realised we were here! I think that they enjoyed the cuddles as much as we did!
On Friday, we enjoyed the fresh air and sunshine whilst playing outdoors. We explored different ways to move and showed skill in using different types of outdoor equipment. We had lots of fun skipping, riding the bikes and climbing on the climbing frames!
On Friday, our storytelling centred around a magic train ride, as we were still incredibly excited about our experience of travelling by train! We let our imaginations take us to exciting places on our journey, as we continue to develop our sense of wonder, and we had a go at writing the place names too. You could create another magic train ride story at home this weekend. I wonder which way you will choose to tell it!
